The first is the OB Gyne. She started her clinic at 9 AM. I was really early (before 8 AM as it is her normal clinic hours). It is really best to go once the clinic opens for there are only a few patients. Before, I went there around 10 AM or 11 AM, there were many patients and I waited long for my turn. 

I prayed the St. Joseph rosary while waiting at her clinic. 

The second is the cardiologist. He is supposed to have three operations but one cancelled. His secretary is not sure if he would hold a clinic. So while waiting, prayed my Precious Blood chaplet devotion.

Nearing 12 noon, the secretary informed us there is no chance my doctor will be holding a clinic. The first operation started at 7 AM and it is still ongoing. The operation must be complicated.  Since my gastroenterologist already interpreted the results of my blood tests and adjusted some of my medications, I think I am OK. I’ll have my laboratory results interpreted by my cardiologist after the next set of laboratory tests requested by my endocrinologist. That will be on June 2025.

I had lunch at the Floating Island Restaurant.  There is an improvement with their service. It is faster compared to when I was there last time.  I ordered Paksiw Na Bangus Belly (PhP480.00), plain rice, and Ripe Mango Shake (PhP180.00).

My third doctor is a nephrologist.  In the Makati Medical Center website, his clinic is supposedly every Monday, Wednesday and Friday from 3 PM to 6 PM with Monday by appointment, and first come, first served on Wednesday and Friday. I just learned that his clinic is every Monday and Thursday, same hours, and both days are by appointment.  I would be seeing him on March 3.

Instead of Edgar, the driver, picking me up at the hospital, I decided to walk to Ayala Center via the elevated walkway. My outdoor walk has been recorded by my Apple Watch. Prayed the rosary on the way.

I bought toothpaste at The Landmark supermarket.  And as a treat for walking for 30 minutes, had a Frappuccino at the Coffee Bean & Tea Leaf.

I was picked-up at Glorietta on my way home.
